Abstract excerpt
RAS proteins are GTPases that regulate a wide range of cellular processes. RAS activity is dependent on its nucleotide-binding status, which is modulated by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEF) and GTPase-activating proteins (GAP). KRAS can be acetylated at lysine 104 (K104), and an acetylation-mimetic mutation of K104 to glutamine (K104Q) attenuates the in vitro-transforming capacity of oncogenic KRAS by...
